Ingredients
4 unwaxed lemons
5cm piece of root ginger, peeled and sliced thinly
75g caster sugar
10g Truvia Calorie-Free Sweetener
1.6 litre sparkling water
Ice, to serve
Method
1
Use a vegetable peeler to cut all the zest off the lemons - try not to peel away any of the pith. Cut the lemons in half and use a lemon juicer to squeeze them. Discard the seeds.
2
Put into a saucepan with the strips of zest, sugar, ginger slices and 750ml cold water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 15 minutes. Leave to cool, then chill, for at least 1 hour.
3
Strain through a sieve into a large jug. To serve, dilute with the sparkling water. Add ice and lemon slices.
